Newtown Shopping Centre, Newtown
Located immediately to the west of the A34 as it heads north from Birmingham towards Walsall, Newtown Shopping Centre appeared to have been a recent recipient of refurbishment work, and was generally a surprisingly pleasant place to be. The low buildings of the shopping centre are dwarfed by the vast bulk of Inkerman House, which actually sits atop the eastern extremity of the centre.

Flats built on the site of the old Crocodile Works. At Least they retained the name.
